A'VCKER'S THEATRE. ‘The menia forelegant comedy continues, and large 2ad .fashimable audiences at McVicker's nre the result. For the second week of Miss Coonib's engagement * London. Assurance ” has been placed uzon the stage, with the usual care- fal regard forthe mechanical requirements, but with agenenal effect mot upto the mark of « School for Scandal.” It is, perhaps, not to be expectedl that a dramatic company in 8 theatre where the “star” system almost uniformly obtsins, should embrace talent capable of reaching an exalted degreo of excel- Jenco in standard assumptions of character in which somo of the world’s greatest actors have oads their brightest mark; o that to sy that the production of *London Assurance” at Mc- Vicker's is attended with not a few imgarfec— tions, is to say_nothing remarkable under the circumstances. ~ It would be unfair, for instance, to institate comparison between Mark Smith and Afr. Lanegan as Sir Harcourt Courtley. The for- mer was tho decayed old fop, Whose most distateful follies were him ‘nsed 23 the material with which to create & most ‘artistic portraiture; tho latter comes as near it 28 ho cen. Ho would not belong to McVicker's rompany if he could do it as well s Merk Smith. Thero are no marked features of excellence in ‘the cast, and, with the exception of Mr. Pendle- ‘o, who seems to have mistaken his vocation, there are no positively distrossing weaknesses, ‘The performance is of the *fair to middling” ‘order, never o be remembered for anything in partictlar, except it be for its beautiful stage Settings. ~Even the rendition of Zady Gay by AMiss ~ Coombs, does =nob greatly ss- sist din redeeming the _ ontertain- went from mediocrity. _Whether because pstablished success has led to a falling off in pare =nd painstaking, or, perchance, that the Swift march of time is wearing away the vigor and freshness of younger years,—whatever the canse, there seems to bo lackun, fhie animation nd piquancy whi used to char- seterize the role in the hands of Miss Coombs. In her interview with Sir Harcourt, during which the elopement is planned, she manifestsa leaning toward burlesque, ing the mistake of supposing thet the sudience needs this in Srder to penetrate the design; and it requires no very nice ear to detect an incrensing habit of singing the lines—the result of injudicious in- somewhat of 3iss 6.

The first annual meeting of the Chicago Bap- tist Unton was held last evening, in the Second Baptist Church, Mr. C. R. Blackall in the chair. Delegates wero present from nearly sll the churches of that denomination. The exercises opened with. the einging of the hymnm, after which the Rev. T. W. Goodspeed read the Scrip- ture and the Rev. W. Everts offered prayer. The roll of the churches having been called, the Rev. Dr. Goodspeed, Sr., pastor of the church, briefly welcomed tlre Union and invited the members to & sociable at the close of the ex- erciges. Mr. Blackall presented his annual report as President. After dwelling on the history of tho TUnion at length, the President made some rec- ommendations; first, to have an annual Sunday School gathering ; second, to have an annual ot s mee:ingg’of the 'Union, and third, to ‘have an annual dinner. Mr. Hanchett presented the annual report of the Board of Directors, whick cousisted of a brief epitome of the events of the past year, baving an interest for the members of the Union. There had been eleven meetings of the Board; the sttendance had been regular, and the work harmoniously earried on. The xeport was concarred in. The Board proceeded to ballot for officers for the ensuing year, resulting as follows : President—C. R, Blackall, Vice Presidents—W. Garnet, S. 8. Scribner, 0. B, ¢ ulling, Treasurer—H. B. Brayton. Secretary—Theodore J. Elmore, . During the absence of tho Committes, the Rev. Florence McCarthy was called upon to ad- dress tho meeting, Ho said he had no speecly to meke—only o declaration of love. Where were those, lie asked, who had predicted the dissolution of the Union; who had cronked of the corpses of. defunct Unions scattered round ? If the Union lived, it was a big thing for two or three years. They had no esprit de corps & year 8g0. It was the mission of the Union to" create the sentiment upon which the Union should live. He had never heard such a prayer be- fore as that which Dr, Everts had offered. He felt then that all the Baptist Churches wers praying together. He loved his own (the Union Park) Church; loved everything about it; but he did not know which he loved best, his Church or the Umon. _He thought the Constitution of tho Union was badly drawn up, but it was good all through. Itwasa good democratic constitu-~ tion, and the ministers were for once pub in the beck-ground. He recommended that a collec- tion be taken upin every church for ihe pur- poso of putting the churches at Lawndalo and the Rock Ieland car works on a sure basis. The statement that an effort had been mado to slight Some of those he loved was a libel and 2 slan- lor. Hev. Dr. Thomes was called upon, but shook his head in the negative, and finally fook off_his overcoat and addressed the Union. He seid he and Dr. McCarthy were formerly on the Board of Directors, but had left it. Since that it had prospered. [Laughtor.] For the purpose of saving the Fifth Church, he hud worked hard ; also to effect an union between the North Side churches, but he had failed. He then left the Board. A part of the church extenmsion pro- gramme had been carried out, but was not men- tioned in the report; one church had been scattered ; a second absorbed ; a third serionsly troubled and embarrassed, while a fourth had been sold. [Laughter.] He rejoiced ~with Mr. McCarthy that the work _should hsve progressed s well as it had done since Mr. McCarthy and. he had left tha Board of Directors ; and hoped that at the next ‘meeting he wonld find a fund subscribed for the encouragement of feeblo churches springing into existonce. 'A communication was read from L. D. Boono, calling attention to the fact that, unless speedy measures were taken, the Fifth Church would be sold for half its' value, and the congregation seattered. It was referred to tho Board of Di- rectors. = A A communication from the Swedish Baptist Chureh, calling for assistance, was also reforred £0 the Board of Directors ‘After a hob discussion by Dr. Evarts and others, on the subject of some funds connected journed. A SHOOTER SHOT. The Chaomplon Pigeon Slayer of America _ Meets with o Scrious Accident. On fonday morning last, Captain Bogardus, the famous pigeon shooter, met with 2 very se- ~vere accident while hunting in the vicinity of Elkbart, Ind., owing to the untimely discharge of his fowling-piece. He was riding in a wagon, with the gun resting on his lap. One of the wheels sank into & rot, shaking the vehicle and its occupant with- such violence that the gun was thrown from its resting place and discharged. The contents en- tered the fleshy part of the Captain's right thigh, inflicting en ugly and painful wound sbout six inches in length and one and a half inches in_depth. Bogardus will be incon- venienced by the accident for some weeks., His many friends throughout the country will be gratified to learn that the mishap will not result in any permanent injury. = — e ‘Headquarters for the Holidays. A recent isgue of THE TAIDUNE contained an edi- torial mention of & novel feature to be introduced at tho forthcoming World’s Exposition, at Vienna, which will take the form of & department devoted entirely to an exhibition of articles for the use and pleasure of children. Yesterdsy evening an immenso crowd of grown people and little folks might have been seen thronging the capacious establishment of Vergho, ‘Rubling & Co.; Nos. 138 and 140 State street, and upon entering one would have thought that these enterpris- Ing gentlemen’ had caught the idea mentioned, snd had gotten up & juvenile expo- sition of their own, to which sll nations hsd contrib- ted of their finest and most attractive articles for the little men and women, whose wants have become so imperative of lste, The displsy was unquestionably one of the inest of the sort ever made in Chicago, 18 4¢ waa the most extensive snd desirable, At the main entranco o large, liberally loaded, and handsomely illuminated Christmas trae, Served to prepare the visitor for o constant, and scemingly un- ending, succeesion of gurprises, Tho windows, show-cases, and _shelves, fairly overflowed with their fempting wares, where the purchaser could ‘e accommodated with every conceivable thipg that the ‘most whimsical and capricious child could desire, All tho standard lines of toys, in the way.of dolls and games, of every material, 'znd st prices toaccommo- date all purses, were exhibited in quantities to bewil- der and distract, to which was added a largo variety of novelties in Yhe way of meclianical toys, The stock is ot confined to articles for children, however, but also includes a most _desirable asortmént and variety of fection. These faults are "of recent date; at least, they were mot no- ticesble on tho occasion of Mies Coombs’' former appearance; and it isnot im- sible that & little plain criticism will prove swholesome to a lady who has been 80 much and o deservedly fiatiered.

CeNTRALIA, T11,, Dec. 10.—The Illinois State Horticultural Society commenced its fifteenth annual meeting at Reeder Hall at10 o'clock this morning, President James E. Starr in tho chair. The attendance is not large, and in the afternoon the cold weather prevented the bringing of the usual quantity of fruit for exhibition. Dr. Hut- ton, President of the Local Horticultural So- ciety, delivered an address of welcome. The Presidont responded andread an address, in which he made many valuable suggestions. Ho referred to the fact that the last Legislature failed tomake an appropriation. He recom- mended the appointment of a second Btanding Committoe by the Socioty. The present meeting is to be largely devoted to discussion instead of long essays, and to make this available to the public, & short-hand reporter has been engaged, and itis expected that tho proceedings will ‘bo published in the shortest possible time. - The Treasurer reported a balance on hand of $1,010. The Secrotary reported the cause of delay of tho appearanco of the proceedings of the Inst annual meeting. It was ceused by the Execu- {ivo Gommities, whiting for the xeport of the State Entomologist, and he recommended that ‘hereafter no outside matters be permitted to de- lay the publication of the reports. The ex- gfi(éi;ures of the Society for the year were The usual Committees swere appointed. Mr. Flagg suggested that the change in the Post Offico regulations, reducing packages of Beeds and glantu from pounds to three-fourths of a pound, hes had a bad result, and that, either the old rate or a more extended quantity be rec- ommended. A Committeo of five was appoint- ed to report on the subject. A Committee on Expressage was also appoint- ed. It wasstated that the charges for express- age were not uniform, and in many instances had proved to be prohibitory. _The subject of railroad freight had a random discussio, and appeared to result in this: that, 50 long as combinations wore possible, competi- tion was impossible. It was suggested by Mr. Flagg that the only remedy was in legislative regulations and the Courts, and he had no doubt that the decision of Judgo Tipton would be sus- tained. A Sfiecin.l Committee was appointed. Dr. Humphry reported from the Third District acrop of peaches, the onlycrop since 1858: apples plenty; grapes, o great abundance ; small fruits moderate. he Davis apple is the most perfect and marketablo of the season, Shelter belts for prairio orchards are very desirablo, 8- pecially in the North and West. The oldest orchards in Enox_County are now forty yvears old, and appear in good condition. He stated that Hancock County was well located for com- mercial orchards. This year the apples were scrubby, except the avis. The ¢ Winesep,” an old popular variety, was nearly worthless from the scab. Grapes among the river counties were o partial crop. Throughout the district pears have been seri- ously damaged by blight. Grapes have sold at from 8 £0 4 cents, the Concord being the leading Variety. Mr. Edwards, of the Second District, reported & prosperons year as to crops, but with very low prices. The fruit crop near Galens was a good one, end apples gold at a dollar & bushel. The “Minn” plums yet hold out agninst the cur- culio, e grape crop was good, the Concord the leading variety. At Lreeport the ap- lo crop was good, but with _ too rge & proportion of fall apples. The Minn plum is the only one of yalue at that point. The early Richmond cherry is popular in tbis dis- trict. In well cultivated orchards the apples ‘were very fair. and of most varieties thers was a large yield. The peaches were of poor quality, and small. Littlo Prairic showed & samplo of a trap for codling moth, the trap being & thin rim of cat stuff tiod around the tree. Itis not patented, but appears a cheap and efficient remedy. It de- gerves an extended trial. Ar. Edwards paid a glowing tribute to forost tree planting, and pictured its cffects on all ra- ral homes. Its value to tho prairio orchard ‘was also set forth. Mr, Flagg called attention to the great size, fair form, and superior quality of mauy varie- ties of the apples, and could only account for it on the hypothesis of tho effects of the drouth -on the soil, rendering it more communicative and thus more capable of supplying plant food. Grape culture was then taken up. Dr. Hum- phry Baid that many persons objected to tho summer pruning of tho grape, snd while ex- cessive pruning was decidedly injurious, a mod- erate amount of praning was desirable. ' Ho also advocated tho covering of grape vinos for winter &)mceetion, but great care is roquired in this Lind of winter protection, a8 sometimes an excess of moisture may ruin them. The as- pect and condition must be taken into coneidera-~ tion. r. Galush was opposed to covering with earth. Covering is only admissible in dry soils. North of Morris it may bo more useful. Mr. Neleon, of Will County, would not cover. Ar, Scofield, of Freeport, bad covered pert of 1iis vines, but the crop was. not more than one- fourth of similar vincs located on the north side of a row of maple troes, and otherwigc exposed. Mr. Wier would prefer to lay his vines on the gronnd and lay the stakes on them, Mr. Hammond snid that a neighbor neglected to summer prune, and had a large crop. The evidonco 1as ‘against Eovers SumMMmer prunning and the covering of vines. A long discussion followed in regard to the amount of culture required, that resulted in & showing in favor of good clean culture, as op~ posed to & mixture of weeds and grass.

TorEga, Kan., Dec, 10.—The annual meeting of the Kansas State Horticultural Society com- menced in the Senate Chamber of the Btate House this morning at 9 o'clock. The Hon. John Guthrie made the welcoming addross, in which he briefly but eloquently alluded to the history of Kansas, and also to tho history of Horticulture in the State, closing with an em- | phatic welcome to the Capital. i Dr. Wm. M. Honsley, President of the Society, responded in very appropriate terms, accept- ing, on behalf of the mombers, the hospitality tendered by To];gkm Colonel B. S. Elliott, Industrial Agent of the Kansas Pacific Railroad, offercd a set of pream- Dle and resolutions referring to the recommend- ation of Commissioner Watts, of the Agricul- tural Department, and embodied in the message of President Grant to Congress, to the reserva- tion of timber on one-tenth of cach quarter sec- tion of land, whero it exists, or else the cultiva- tion of the same g;mufity of land in timber, on all the public lands subject to_entry or home- stead; " also requesting the Chief of tho Signal Service to establish stations west and south- west of Kansas City, without which the forecasting of probabilities of the weather for Kansas and Missouri would be faulty, Both of theso measyres were unanimously indorsed by the Secretary. The tables of the Society are loaded with fine apples, as yet unlabelled. No other fruits are exhibited thus far. The session promises to bo very interesting and profitable. MADISON.

Tia laeation ig . TuzspaY Evextyo, Dec, 10, _Bome falling off in the demand both for for- eign and domestic goods is noted, as compared with the preceding two or three weeks, but our leading jobbers are still doing a larger business than they have any rezson to anticipate at this season of the year, and the condition of the ‘market is, in the main, satisfactory. Prices have undergone fow changes,but those few changes have been in an upward direction, and the gen- eral tendency of the market, for cotton 28 well as for woollen textures, is to enbanced values. Stocks of neady all Tines of goods are more or less reduced, but they are still in fair working order, and jobbers ex- perience rio difficulty in promptly meeting the wants of their customers. The carpet lo re- mains quiet, with Littlo or no variation in prices.
